The life of the character
1. At that time, Liu Bei was attached to Gongsun Zan, and Zhao Yun was able to make friends with Liu Bei. Gongsun Zan went to war with Yuan Shao and sent Tian Ji, the secretariat of Qingzhou, to occupy the northwest of Qingzhou. Yuan Shao also sent tens of thousands of troops to fight for it. Gongsun Zan promoted Liu Bei as another Sima and sent Liu Bei to help Tian Ji resist Yuan Shao. Zhao Yun went out with Liu Bei and took charge of the cavalry for Liu Bei.
2. Later, Zhao Yun resigned from Gongsun Zan and went home because of his brother's death. Knowing that Zhao Yun would never come back, Liu Bei held Zhao Yun's hand and was unwilling to part with it. Zhao Yun bid farewell to Liu Bei and said, "After all, you can't do anything against moral integrity."
